Thank you for your review. I am so pleased you stayed at Seafarers' Landing and did some exploring. The area is very relaxing and the wildlife is incredible. I hope you got to see some of the funny Bush Turkeys, Parrots, and other wonderful wildlife in action and got to see the Possums in the trees. We often do the afternoon walk along the foreshore at dusk or soak up the sunsets from the verandah.
Thanks again - you were lovely guests.

Fantastic property in a beautiful location. Perry (host) was super friendly and helpful and even provided plenty of advice on what to do and where to go in the area.

thank you, Edward, it was a pleasure to have you and your guests stay. We really appreciate the way you left the house and obviously cared for it. Please come again.
This little cottage is big enough for a family of four with plenty of outside relaxing space.
Perry has thought of everything you may need so it’s very comfortable - just need food and a few toys for the kids.
Friendly neighbors close by give the property a little village feel. Lovely views on the top deck for meals. We enjoyed ourselves immensely.

Re Perry
Two of us stayed to do a mix of work and relaxation. The location was perfect, very quiet with beautiful water and tree views. The house was well appointed and very comfortable, Perry had thought of everything you could need. We walked to the natural pool which was spectacular to swim in. Hidden gem, would love to return!

hi Sonja, thank you for your review. You were a pleasure to host and we hope you will return for another stay. Well done going for a swim in the cliff pool. It's such a refreshing swim in the fresh natural spring water. We hope you got to meet the friendly possum and enjoy some of the other wildlife in the area. We look forward to having you back for your next getaway!
With thanks

Seafarer's Landing is the perfect place to getaway from the hustle and bustle, the house is warm and cozie, we enjoyed evenings by the outside fire and mornings on the front balcony. Was wonderful to have good quality linen and all necessary kitchen utensils provided. Perry was the perfect host. Great place if you just want to relax. Looking forward to returning.

My family and I had a great time, the house was one of the nicest places we've ever stayed in, beautifully decorated and in such a beautiful spot along the Hawkesbury River. Our dogs loved exploring the yard and they had the best time too. Thanks again!

Thank you for your wonderful review. We are super pleased that you and the fury part of the family had a great stay. I hope you found the walking fire trail behind the property. It's a really nice walk with great views and gets you close up to some stunning rock formations and caves. If you didn't then you will have to come again.
You were awesome guests.
Thanks for staying at Seafarers' Landing.

My four-night stay at Seafarers Landing House was a delightful escape. The interior was tastefully decorated, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The spacious living areas and well-equipped kitchen added to the comfort of my stay. The bedrooms were comfortable, and I appreciated the attention to detail in the decor. The proximity to local attractions and the seamless communication with the host enhanced the overall experience. Seafarers Landing House offered a memorable and homely retreat.

Thank you Somayeh, for your review! and for identifying the areas of Seafarers' Landing that we really worked hard to achieve. Include modern conveniences while keeping a laid-back relaxing atmosphere where you can unwind from your busy life. We love the river and there is so much to see and do. We hope you will return for another vacation.

We had the most relaxing break for 6 days at Seafarers Landing. Perry is a very welcoming host and made booking, check in and stay seamless for us. House is very clean and stocked with everything we needed. Boat jetty was meters away and we used our own boat to fish everyday and visited a few remote beaches in the area. House is big enough for a family of 4, in our case 2 adults and 2 furry friends. Our dogs had a ball staying there too, enjoyed bush walks around Bar Point. If you are looking to disconnect and relax from hustle and bustle of Sydney - this a a perfect spot!

Our 3-night stay was to celebrate my husband's birthday. We wanted to have a peaceful, relaxing getaway that was a little bit different to our usual & that was exactly what we experienced. Arriving by water taxi was amazing! The property is like a home away from home. Extremely comfortable. Everything you could possibly require is there. Perry is a fabulous host who provides an array of information, not only on how to logistically navigate your way to the accommodation but also provide helpful information on where to dine, what to do etc. (he also has impeccable taste in decor). I highly recommend this property if you are seeking a home away from home with comfy bedding, fabulous surroundings (including wonderful wildlife sounds) and serenity. We will return :)Lauren & Kev
This location and property are Superb.
House is in the Perfect Location at the right height to get beautiful views and see the changing light morning and evening. The house has top of the range facilities and appliances. Everything just works. The floating dock is easy to find and moor boat to. The waterway is superb. We motored to Wiseman's Ferry in an easy hour. There are numerous places to explore and visit. The most interesting from a historic viewpoint is Bar Island. Seafarers Landing is so close to Sydney but a million miles away. All the city stresses disappear as soon as you arrive. A wonderful place which I hope to return to.

Charlene and her friends were wonderful guests. We highly recommend Charlene to other hosts. Can't speak more highly of Charlene and wish all our guests were as respectful of our property, neighbourhood, and jetty. We hope you got to visit the convict made swimming pool spring? But if not you had better come back.

We had a lovely time at Perry's property. It's situated on the Hawkesbury and we enjoyed exploring the water and nearby beaches and national parks by boat. The house was well equipped and comfortable. Perry was an excellent host - very easy to communicate with. Only one minor suggestion would be for a bedside lamp to enable bedtime reading. Thanks for having us to stay and the great local tips!

Thank you for your kind suggestion too. Much appreciated.

This is a fabulous property in a great location, allowing an escape from the world for a little while and explore the Hawkesbury. Fabulously well equipped with everything you need and want and the host provided us with everything we needed to know. The beds were comfy too! We can’t wait to go back.

Bar Island is peaceful and surrounded by nature. The house is stylish and comfortable and a great place to relax with views of the Hawkesbury river and surrounds.
It’s water access only so be prepared to pay for water taxis if you don’t have a boat. Or hire a boat in Brooklyn to make the most of the area.
BYO fishing rods or kayaks if you so desire. Otherwise relax with a good book, and go for bush walks along the foreshore. It’s a good spot to stop and relax.

My partner, two friends and I stayed here over the Labour Day weekend and could not recommend it more!
Perry was there when we arrived by private boat and was friendly and helpful. The house was spotless and has all the amenities you need. It was very peaceful and perfect for us all to switch off and chill out.
We all wish we could have stayed longer!

Seafarers landing exceeded our expectations. The house is cozy and gorgeous with great attention to detail. We loved boat only access so we felt far away from civilization without losing any 5 star comforts. Amazing and large effort by the owners we will be back.

Hi Claudia, we are so happy you had a relaxing stay. We certainly would love to have you back again. We have other properties as well so please check them out on Home Away
This property is a great place to go to if you want to get away from the busyness of life. It has great scenery with a great outdoor space. The house was very cozy and is the perfect size for a couple. The kitchen, whilst small, was very homey and nice. Our favourite place was the outdoor fireplace.
If you don't have a boat you will have to hire a water taxi to and from the property.
All things considered we had a great time and would certainly visit again.

What a brilliant way to escape the daily grind. Our stay had everything we could possibly need and Perry was an excellent host to communicate with. Bush fire trails out the back that we could explore at our own will and a fun experience getting to and from via the local river taxi, Neil. Will definitely be visiting again.

My wife and I have sought to incorporate every detail in this house so our guests enjoy their experience from the moment they arrive.
Why they chose this property
We found this delightful house just a few minute boat ride from Brooklyn with a jetty and boasting gorgeous views of the Hawkesbury River. We felt as if we had stepped into another time. So we bought it.
We focused our attention on detail and thought of what you would expect out of your vacation experience. Seafarers' Landing offers: Comfortable beds, quality linen, and towels, A well-appointed kitchen and modern appliances, Stunning bathroom, Large TV and free Wifi, Netflix, Quality lounges and decor, Spacious all-weather outdoor spaces, fire, BBq and lazy deck chairs, Games such as darts, board games, and puzzles, books & videos,
What makes this property unique
What we mostly like about Seafarers' Landing and Bar Point is that the moment you arrive you are in a different world as there are no cars. Yet only a few minutes away by boat from fine dining, shops, pubs, and clubs, parks, and unique places such as Bar Island, Milson Island, and Dangar Island.
The views are stunning, wildlife abounds and the river is just amazing to be on. If you don't have a boat there are several walks and places to see from the shore.
Please feel welcome to visit Seafarers' Landing for your next getaway!
